goaltender Shawn Hunwick

Blue Jackets goaltender Steve Mason will not play tonight after being hit in the mask with a shot by Colton Gillies during this morning’s pregame skate.
The Blue Jackets, in turn, signed former University of Michigan goaltender Shawn Hunwick to a one-day amateur tryout agreement. He will back up Allen York tonight against the Detroit Red Wings in a nationally televised game in Nationwide Arena. Hunwick is the younger brother of Colorado Avalanche defenseman Matt Hunwick
